Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gellyswick

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gellyswick use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gellyswick. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gellyswick. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When to call us in Gellyswick

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
